Supervising the eooes were Ron Bogart and Aedrew Dixon, members of the staff, and Lloyd Cuehman. Following the meal, which was obviously enjoyed by all in attendance, spectators viewed the many science exhibits and work turned out by the boys in the Industrial arts class. Manufactured products in the latter exhibit ranged from beds, lamps, cupboards and chairs to smaller items produced by the students in the grade nine elass- es. The e c !elle e exhibits had many feat u r e s including: a "Snoopescope", which builder Jens Graviev explained would pick up a conversation from 40 yards; a demonstration on the making of Pepsi Cola supplied by Tuceey Beverages; a test to show which detergent actually washes the cleanest, with this particular test giving the nod Choose entrants for Kirkton show ere, Joy Seldon, Linda Picker- ing, Anna Bern, Marie Earring- ton, Barbara Denali, Chris Cameron, Carol Bell, Kathy Whittington, Sheila Keller, Marjorie Fiske, Kathy Bracken, Janet Miller, Sharon Burns, Elaine Whitney, Dorothy Far- well, Elsie Gamble, Ruth Hodge, Pat Bridges, Sandra McClinchy, Rosilind Burns, May Ann Wilds, Theresa Hartman, Marjorie Day:nen, Carol Henery, Nancy England, Linda Edwards, Deb- bie Hynes, Mary Bannister, Shari Robertson, Judy Coward and Elizabeth Elleringten.

Hensall council —Continued from front page road because drains were plug- ged. Councillor N o ak e s re- marked that with all the money that had been spent fixing drains they could have provided new sidewalks throughout the com- munity. The need for "Yield" and "Stop" signs was discussed and council decided to inves- tigate further and get approval for the erection of said signs where required. books would have to be audited on his retirement before his replacement took over. Crown Attorney W. G. Coch- rane advised council he had approved of two of the four applicants screened by him for the vacancy on the police force. Reeve Boyle recommended that the two men be interviewed personally by the police com- mittee Both men have previous po- lice experience in area forces. The police report was pre- sented to council by Wright in the absence of Chief MacKen- zie, who is attending a con- ference in Barrie. The report prompted Taylor to note it was one of the best they had received for some time and indicated the police- men had been busy in the past month. The report was as follows; nine charges made under the Criminal Code, 16 speeders caught by radar, four parking tickets handed out, 32 inves- tigations conducted, four sum- monses served for other police, one arrest, one stolen car re- covered, one lost child found, one bicycle located, 16 warn- ings handed out under the high- way traffic act, two accidents of over $100 and one under, three banquet permits issued.

They were Cliff Brintnell, who plans to build a home on Huron Street and Cliff Salmon, Dash- wood, who will be building for a client on Gidley Street, east. A request for a permit from Exeter Dairy for the erection of a storage shed was turned over to the Planning Board A total of 11 applications have been received for the position of clerk-treasurer to fill the vacancy created by the resig- nation of C. V. Pickard, and council decided Monday to ad- vertise further in the hope of attracting more applicants. This was a decision made at a special meeting last week called by the finance committee who were handed the job of filling the vacancy. An advertisement will ap- pear in the Municipal World as well as the newspapers in which the item appeared pre- viously. Councillor Wooden and Reeve Boyle opposed the idea of ad- vertising further, suggesting a suitable candidate could be gleaned from the 11 applicants to date, "It's wasting time and money," Boyle said after the suggestion was made to ad- vertise again. However, Councillor Barrett said 11 applications were not enough for such an important decision, adding that only three or four of the 11 were suitable. Deadline for applications was set for June 30. Another item presented from the special meeting was the decision to offer the position of deputy clerk-treasurer to Miss Jean Taylor at a salary of $4,200. She is the present stenographer and has completed the necessary course to be- come a clerk-treasurer. Clerk C. V . Pickard agreed that naming her a deputy would be advantageous in that she could sign documents and handle other business for which a stenographer would not be qual- ified. WINS CROWN A highlight of the program was the contest for the Posture Queen trophy donated by local chiropractor, G. A. Webb. He acted as one of the judges along with Mrs. William Pollen and Dr. R. W. Read. The grade 11 entrant, Sandra England, Crediton, was judged winner in competition with three other girls, Judy Coward, Sandra Dickey and Sheila Fahn- er. These four had been gleaned from contests conducted' by Miss L. Seigner among all the girls at SHDHS.

Absenteeism among area stu- dents attending the vocational classes at Central Huron Secondary School continues to be a major problem and an expensive one. In giving the monthly report for Principal H, L. Sturgis, Joe Wooden told the local board Tuesday that 17 students from the area had more than four days absenteeism each at the Clinton school in May. Some ran as high as 11 days. There were only gl school days in the month. Excuses for absentees ranged from headaches, sore ankles, looking for work, helping at home, missing the bus and en- tertaining visitors at home. Cost to local taxpayers for sending students to Clinton is $3.03 per day and no grant is received when students are not in attendance at classes. School supplies — Continued from front page and girls' washrooms, showers and change rooms needed paint- ing, desks in one class needed refinishing and general repairs were "too numerous to men- tion". However, O'Brien ela- borated to an extent on the latter by reporting there were many loose doors, radiator fronts were falling off, windows were broken and screens were dam- aged. He suggested that a carpent- er be hired on a time and ma- terial basis to do the latter work as it would be impossible for anyone to tender. The commit- tee did recommend that tenders be called for the supply of the drapes and for the painting. The property committee also recommended the board follow a schedule of repainting two or three rooms each year. The complete committee also recommended the board follow a schedule of repainting two or three rooms each year. The complete recommenda- tion was accepted by the board.

The communications were received from EMO Co-ordin- ator Stuart Forbes, Huron Clerk-Treasurer John Berry and A. M. Harper, auditor. Forbes noted he had not al- ways seen eye-to-eye with the clerk, but said he was sorry to hear of his retirement. "That was pretty nice," Mr. Pickard commented, noting Forbes had been perturbed over the fact he would not accept the position as local co-ordinator. "Everyone will be sorry to see you leave," Berry stated, adding it was most regrettable when such good administrative officers as Mr. Pickard had to some day leave their posts. He said he had always found the local clerk to be most co- operative. The auditor noted he had "enjoyed" auditing the local books and paid special tribute to Miss Taylor, whom he noted took more interest than most people in the work she did. After the letters were read, Mr. Pickard explained that the By MRS. G. HOOPER Mr. & Mrs. Leonard Thack- er, Cathy and Joy visited Sun- day with Mr. Fred Pattison of St. Marys.

NO DISCUSSION The letter from Beaver Food Services was read at the start of the meeting while the com- mittee was touring the building, and was not brought up for dis- cussion when they returned. The cafeteria firm suggested an increase of five cents in hot and cold plates, bringing them to 34, and a charge of 44 for a complete meal. They said the current prices were too low in comparison to costs, adding that boosting the price would be better than cut- ting down on servings to the students. In other business, the board; Accepted the tender of Im- perialle Fuels for the supply of coal at $15.37 per ton, an in- crease of 170 over last year. It was the only price submitted.
